Sinjinhawke Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Two episodes in one calendar year? We are truly blessed, thank you. Would this be considered the Christmas 2020 episode? Looking forward to listening to this. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_me Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 The Daniel Bass follow-up was nice, explaining how some of the tunes came about. He did a really good job of duplicating the arcade game, except for the fact that the panic/hyperspace function was added. Maybe QA felt locomotion was too hard. Did this come up in the first interview? So what cartridge is being reviewed next? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess none of us realized the Panic Button element wasn’t a part of the arcade game. Perhaps Daniel will chime in here if I give him a nudge.We haven’t picked the next game yet; although there are a couple likely candidates. I’ve got several programmer interviews ‘in the can’ as well.•Sent from my Intellivision keypad phone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+JasonlikesINTV Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Just started listening to this episode. Just wanted to add that the Wii has twice as many Just Dance, Barbie, and Monster High games. Also Hannah Montana, Dora, Bratz, etc. I've had sooo many awkward purchases as GameStop over the years ? 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol. You're the reason I'm buying all these bloody Wii U games. At least you convinced me not to do the Wii as well. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but the Wii has 1500 games and the WiiU 170. The Just Dance games are almost 10% of the WiiU library. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RetroAdvisoryBoard Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 The outtakes were brilliant... that audible distancing had all the professional touch of a man who clearly wasn't yelling at his first wall. A very humble thank you for the channel shoutout, that just made my week. Might be something of a 2nd to getting that shoutout on Romper Room's magic mirror segment, but it's up there. I mean, it's Romper Room. The playground cred. "Daniel, go get a surname." ? 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly Paul and I may have caused Rick to yell at more than one wall, so yes, he does come by it honestly. ? happy to give you a shoutout, I really enjoy your takes here on AA and on AAA (that's a lot of A's), as well as your well thought out videos. ?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wrong with a lot of Eh's!!!!!! Am I right eh! I hate myself for supporting that stereotype. For penance I will play 3 games of Intellivision Carnival. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putting together the outtakes is one of the most enjoyable parts of producing the episodes for me. Glad you enjoyed them! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniel3302 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Hi All, sorry for the delay in trying to answer your question about the panic button. Frankly, my recollection was that the panic button was part of the arcade game. If it wasn't then my guess is it was added to make the game a little more survivable, as the goal was not to eat quarters. However, after nearly 40 years, I really can't say for sure. As for the delay, shortly after this thread was posted I had a family crisis involving Covid, followed in April with my diagnosis with prostate cancer, and treatment lasting the rest of last year. I was finally feeling like I can open up a bit, and then along came omicron. Oh well. Stay safe out there! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just thinking about you last week, as you made it into our year-end outtakes episode.Sent from unspecified hardware using indeterminate software Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
